stunning date night makeup ideas for valentine's day


Tonight is the night. You have a get-together with someone special. (Or someone not so special. Only time will tell!) That means putting on your favourite outfit and spending a little extra time in front of the mirror. That’s right. Tonight is date night! Not sure how you want to do your makeup? Take a deep breath and relax. These stunning makeup ideas will inspire your Valentine’s Day look - and help you feel like your best and most beautiful self.

Date Night Makeup: Pink and Pretty

Makeup is versatile. It is a great way to express your personality and showcase how you feel. Are you feeling fun and flirty tonight? Then opt for a makeup look that is fresh and girly. Sweep a soft pink shadow over the eyelids. Layer tons of mascara on your upper and lower lashes for a bold yet pretty look. Skip the eyeliner and focus on the cheeks instead. Grab a classic pink blush shade and dab it onto the apples of the cheeks. Finish off your date night look with a medium pink shade. Amp it up with a shimmery gloss or wear alone. This makeup look is sure to grab attention! 

Date Night Makeup: Neutral Done Right

If there is one thing I love, it has to be neutral makeup. Before you skip past this paragraph…wait! Neutral does not mean boring, bland, or barely there. It is all about using nude shades in a bold and exciting way. Grab a smokey eye palette and apply a medium brown eyeshadow shade all over the lid. Accent it with a deeper brown or black shadow. Add on a little liner and a coat of mascara. On the cheeks, stick to a bronzed blush and finish off with a caramel lipstick shade. Sultry, gorgeous, and absolutely stunning.

Date Night Makeup: Subtle Retro

Still haven’t found the right makeup look for your date? This next idea could be the one. Give your makeup look a little retro flair. Create a bold cat-eye wing (read my tutorial on how to achieve the perfect cat eye liner if you are feeling unsure) with your liquid liner and add on some false eyelashes. Here's a tip: accent lashes are great for a little extra pop without looking too over the top. Next, use a berry toned blush on the cheeks.  Grab a red tinted lip balm and add in some colour on the lips. Why a tinted balm instead of a full-blown lipstick? This will keep your makeup subtle but still give you that retro look.

Are you ready for a Valentine's Day date night? Now you are! With these gorgeous makeup looks to test out and try, you will look stunning wherever you go.

  4. So agree about neutral...it certainly doesn't mean boring! You can do so much with a neutral palette and it's such a classic that it never looks dated in pictures:)
